Yup. This has all been one huge despoliation of evidence and burying of the bodies exercise by the deep state. And dopey sessions helped.
Dont you remember? In 2008, when asked to list his donors, Obama said all the donations were under $200 and POOF, no donor list was ever produced. And at the time, many suspected most of his money was coming from out of the country......but he was OBAMA and investigating him, questioning ANYTHING he did, etc, was RACIST.
This is how the democrats launder money when they steal from gov’t agencies too. The Swiss mountains are hollowed out to stash all the stolen money.
Obama critic Dinesh DSouza went to prison for a $20,000 campaign finance violation, but Hillary’s $84 million violation will not get her any time in prison.
Yes, I remember him implying all the little people were sending what they could, like televangelist style.
Meanwhile, dollars flowed in from Saudi Arabia and such. But the FEC only found a violation with a paltry million or so.
Although the activity wasn’t really the emphasis of my post, I worked quite a few money laundering investigations attendant to other criminal investigations and helped more than a few US Attorneys and AUSAs prepare for trial. With respect to the criminal element of the story, the truth is that both cases (D’Souza and HVF) represent money laundering; laundering money for candidates and for criminal purposes may fall under different titles and statutes, since campaign donations are “cleaner” and “not really criminal activities” (claims I’ve heard from attorneys), but laundering a donation(s) through an individual or an organization is still laundering. One could certainly make the case that the HVF instance could probably be pursued as racketeering.
All that aside, my point of emphasis was precisely in line with your statement that “...the equity argument in D’Souza’s case had to do with arbitrary and disproportionate punishment” when I referred to our apparent “dual (or more)-tiered system of justice,” examples of which are being exposed on at least a weekly basis of late.
Cheers!
Nothing sticks to the Teflon Queen.
When the Clintons need money, Hollywood pulls out its checkbook Remember this?
HOLLYWOOD'S CERTIFIED DEMOCRAT DEGENERATES
FINANCED BILL CLINTON'S LEWINSKY SEX MESS
According to FEC Info, an Internet Web site (www.tray.com) that tracks federal political contributions, 176 individual donors actually contributed $10,000 or more to the lewinsky-era Clinton Legal Expense Trust fund through Dec 1999. Another 21 donors gave $10,000 in the first six months of 2000.
Thanks to Hollywood's generosity, a total of more than $2.2 million was raised in six months, which was notably more than was collected in funding during the previous four years of his presidencycombined. Hollywood producers and stars made up the bulk of the most generous givers. They included:
<><> Universal Studios tycoon Lew Wasserman and his wife, Edith, who have given $60,000;
<><>DreamWorks trio Steven Spielberg, David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg, $20,000 each;
<><> producer Ron Burkle and his wife, Janet, $40,000;
<><> producers Peg and Bud Yorkin, $30,000;
<><> TV producer Norman Lear, $20,000.
Entertainment celebrities and executives giving $10,000 included:
<><> singers Tony Bennett and Barbra Streisand;
<><> actors Michael Douglas and Tom Hanks;
<><> director Ron Howard; producer Gail Zappa;
<><>Black Entertainment Television founder Robert L. Johnson.
========================================
How did the Hollywood elite list payments to Clinton's sex defense fund on their tax returns? How did publicly-traded companies list their donations on shareholder reports?
<><>How did the "DreamWorks" trio, Steven Spielberg, David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg, list their 60,000 dollars to Clinton's sex defense fund?
<><>How did BET list its contribution to Clinton on its corporate statements?
<><> Did Harvey's company list these payments as "business expenses?"
The biggie is the tax element.
<><> Did Hollywood donors deduct it as a business expense,
<><> was it included in assets, payments listed on organization balance sheets as a "liability?"
<><> Did Clinton document it as "income"?
<><> Were the donors given a tax-free certificate from the Clinton Foundation?p....is that why they were so generous?
======================================
When Bill Clinton was at the height of the Monica Lewinsky sex scandal, Hollywood was by his side, offering donations for his legal fees, and one significant donor was a man who is now going through his own sex scandalHarvey Weinstein.
Billionaire Harvey Weinstein raised $1,422,683 for federal candidates and political entities between 1990-2016. Thats small potatoes for his 27 years of rank Democratism, sucking up to feminism and upholding so-called abortion rights as he rampaged and assaulted young women. Adds up to about $5300 a year. Something tells me there are a lot of cash payments off-the-record being paid. (hat tip outpostinmass2) Crunching the numbers as outpost did does give us a sharper look at the political money game as played by the conniving Clintons.
Harvey also gave a bundle to the nefarious tax-exempt Clinton Foundation and perhaps to offshoots of the Clintons tax-free entities.
Did Harvey's donations to the C/F go to "do-good projects"? Or did they make a circuitous route? Maybe landing back into the Clintons eternal political scams?
